The correct answer is D) obsessive-compulsive

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally displays common symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder this includes compulsive or repetitive behaviors as Sally repeat the cycle of cleaning and arranging rugs multiple times (10 to 12 time per day); besides, this she shows obsessive thoughts as she seems to be extremely preoccupied with the bacteria in her house and the position of the rugs. This shows she was both obsessions and compulsions she cannot control and therefore it is likely she experiences the obsessive-compulsive disorder.
